| 20090005343 | B-CYCLODEXTRIN DERIVATIVES AND THEIR USE AGAINST ANTHRAX LETHAL TOXIN - The invention provides low molecular weight compounds that block the pore formed by protective antigen and inhibit anthrax toxin action. Structures of the compounds are derivatives of β-cyclodextrin. Per-substituted alkylamino derivatives displayed inhibitory activity, and they were protective against anthrax lethal toxin action at low micromolar concentrations. Also, the addition of one of the alkylamino derivatives to the bilayer lipid membrane with multiple PA channels caused a significant decrease in membrane conductance. Thus, the invention also provides methods for protection against anthrax toxicity. | 01-01-2009 |

| 20080269144 | Synthesis of Inhibitors of P90Rsk - The synthesis of the naturally occurring kaempferol glycoside SLO1O1-1, as well as analogs thereof, has been accomplished, as has its biochemical evaluation. SLO1O1-1 exhibits selective and potent p90 Rsk inhibitory activity at nanomolar concentrations without inhibiting the function of upstream kinases such as MEK, Raf, or PKC. The synthetic scheme of the invention verified the structural assignment of the natural SLO1O1-1 product and has provided access to material sufficient for detailed biological evaluation. | 10-30-2008 |
| 20100016245 | RHAMNOSE SUBSTITUENTS OF SL0101 AND THERAPEUTIC USES THEREOF - The present invention provides compositions and methods useful for preparing and using analogs, derivatives, and modifications of kaempferols that have anti-neoplastic activity. More specifically, the compounds are analogs, derivatives, and modifications of SLO1O1. The invention further provides compounds that are inhibitors of rsk activity. The invention further provides compounds that selectively inhibit excessive rsk activity in cancers. The present invention further provides methods for treating cancer using compounds of the invention. | 01-21-2010 |
| 20100222436 | REDOX-ACTIVE THERAPEUTICS FOR TREATMENT OF MITOCHONDRIAL DISEASES AND OTHER CONDITIONS AND MODULATION OF ENERGY BIOMARKERS - Methods of treating or suppressing mitochondrial diseases, such as Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA), Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON), mitochondrial myopathy, encephalopathy, lactacidosis, stroke (MELAS), or Kearns-Sayre Syndrome (KSS) are disclosed, as well as compounds useful in the methods of the invention, such as alpha-tocopherol quinone. Methods and compounds useful in treating other disorders are also disclosed. Energy biomarkers useful in assessing the metabolic state of a subject and the efficacy of treatment are also disclosed. Methods of modulating, normalizing, or enhancing energy biomarkers, as well as compounds useful for such methods, are also disclosed. | 09-02-2010 |
